Quite
The unblemished will worst suffer a blight
To know the depth is to appreciate a height
The earthbound most acutely long for flight
There must be an ease to fully grasp a plight
Pathetic weakness inspires awesome might
It is the fearless who can best instill a fright
A man must be dull for another to be bright
To be a gentle soul is to comprehend spite
There has to be wrong for there to be right
It is through blindness that we receive sight
We earn a day's blessing enduring the night
We need darkness that we can see the...

Circle
There is no wall there is no gate
There is no time while we wait
There is no you there is no me
There is no singular eternity
A circle starts where it will end
A new beginning around the bend
And so it went and so it goes
And what it's for no one knows
So on we walk so on we run
Have it all as we have none
A dream of life a life of dream
Maybe more than it may seem
Round it goes round is all
And we rise to see us fall
As we plead why oh when
Then we start it all again
There is no time while we wait
There is no you there is no me
There is no singular eternity
A circle starts where it will end
A new beginning around the bend
And so it went and so it goes
And what it's for no one knows
So on we walk so on we run
Have it all as we have none
A dream of life a life of dream
Maybe more than it may seem
Round it goes round is all
And we rise to see us fall
As we plead why oh when
Then we start it all again

Cash Out
Late night and chips are down
Man in middle wears a frown
Roulette player of no renown
Cleaning table going to town
All he needs is one more spin
Pushing the pile goes all in
Eyes a spectator with a grin
Can't be beat is going to win
Feet planted firm on ground
In for a penny in for a pound
Wheel spins round and round
Ball clicking it's a lucky sound
To pay back rent bet on black
Plans on getting girlfriend back
Red is the winner ack ack ack
Poor guy has a heart attack
Man in middle wears a frown
Roulette player of no renown
Cleaning table going to town
All he needs is one more spin
Pushing the pile goes all in
Eyes a spectator with a grin
Can't be beat is going to win
Feet planted firm on ground
In for a penny in for a pound
Wheel spins round and round
Ball clicking it's a lucky sound
To pay back rent bet on black
Plans on getting girlfriend back
Red is the winner ack ack ack
Poor guy has a heart attack

Up To Us
A truth is momentary and so is a lie
We think we live then think we die
Both are real in a glimpse of time
Second's justice becomes a crime
We think we think in a linear way
We think we thought it all today
But past and future remain same
As it is written in this great game
All is relative a wise man said
Getting a text is in how it's read
And real is real for we say it's so
Now we can choose where to go
We think we live then think we die
Both are real in a glimpse of time
Second's justice becomes a crime
We think we think in a linear way
We think we thought it all today
But past and future remain same
As it is written in this great game
All is relative a wise man said
Getting a text is in how it's read
And real is real for we say it's so
Now we can choose where to go

One In Zero
Have you had your fill?
Be as One in nil
Tired of being toyed?
Assist One in void
Want to pierce the hull?
Tap One in null
Wish corruption caught?
Follow One in naught
Desire unity King?
Find One in no thing
Hoping for a hero?
Become One in zero
Be as One in nil
Tired of being toyed?
Assist One in void
Want to pierce the hull?
Tap One in null
Wish corruption caught?
Follow One in naught
Desire unity King?
Find One in no thing
Hoping for a hero?
Become One in zero

IT
It breaks up families it causes unrest
It has a huge appetite lightly dressed
It blocks the senses it's a tunnel vision
It lies it smirks it is the worst decision
It's there with every prideful goodbye
It's there in the how the when and why
It's pervasive it puts you under a spell
It's a monster a demon right out of hell
It's always the winner it will never miss
It's out to get you I am telling you this
It's a motherfucker it's not your friend
It's your nemesis it wins you in the end
It feeds on you when you need a...

Through Your Eyes Only
A variation of Sheena Easton's lyrics For Your Eyes Only
Through your eyes only, I have to view my kind
Through your eyes only, the fear that's in your mind
You say you see the real me
And that I am just confused
I have never felt so callously abused
Through your eyes only, it's all about you
You only see what you want to see
But now I am busting free
Through your eyes only, it's all about you
A love I have inside of me
But you will never set it free
All about you, all about you
Through your eyes...
Through your eyes only, I have to view my kind
Through your eyes only, the fear that's in your mind
You say you see the real me
And that I am just confused
I have never felt so callously abused
Through your eyes only, it's all about you
You only see what you want to see
But now I am busting free
Through your eyes only, it's all about you
A love I have inside of me
But you will never set it free
All about you, all about you
Through your eyes...

Bloom
Don't wear a mask
That's all I ask
It's too common place
Know that it's right
Step into the light
Let me see your face
There's nothing to hide
I have seen inside
How beautiful you are
Please let it all go
Discontinue the show
Dare to raise your bar
Look love is all around
Don't be shy be found
In the company of men
There's nothing to fear
Wipe away that tear
You will be born again
That's all I ask
It's too common place
Know that it's right
Step into the light
Let me see your face
There's nothing to hide
I have seen inside
How beautiful you are
Please let it all go
Discontinue the show
Dare to raise your bar
Look love is all around
Don't be shy be found
In the company of men
There's nothing to fear
Wipe away that tear
You will be born again

Companions
Unlocked door opened wide
And my peace I must not hide
What once was very true
Can be made right again to fit
Another life no one knows
Endlessly our quest on goes
If you have only this one life
You had better start living it
Companions
We are all companions
However we may ride
A road narrow or wide
Left or the right side
Will you walk through my door?
I should have opened up before
For I know there is still a chance
For favorable winds once more
...
And my peace I must not hide
What once was very true
Can be made right again to fit
Another life no one knows
Endlessly our quest on goes
If you have only this one life
You had better start living it
Companions
We are all companions
However we may ride
A road narrow or wide
Left or the right side

Obsessor
To you violent obsessor
i don't want your spunk
You are not my possessor
You are just a twisted punk
To you oh great doll buster
i am not your earthly prize
If that is all you can muster
Buy a new one in your size
i don't want your sick love
i don't thirst for laced drinks
i don't care what you shove
Or how low your brain sinks
Let me be or face my wrath
Had just about enough of you
You chose it so walk your path
Your filthy bed lay in that too
i don't want your spunk
You are not my possessor
You are just a twisted punk
To you oh great doll buster
i am not your earthly prize
If that is all you can muster
Buy a new one in your size
i don't want your sick love
i don't thirst for laced drinks
i don't care what you shove
Or how low your brain sinks
Let me be or face my wrath
Had just about enough of you
You chose it so walk your path
Your filthy bed lay in that too
